The total expense is recognisedover the vesting period, which is the period over whichall of the specified vesting conditions are to be satisfied.At the end of each period, the entity revises its estimates
of the number of options that are expected to vest basedon the non-market vesting and service conditions. Itrecognises the impact of the revision to original estimates,if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustmentto equity.

3. Significant accounting judgements,estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements requires the useof accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldomequal the actual results. Management also needs toexercise judgement in applying the Company’s accountingpolicies.
The estimates and judgements involve a higher degreeof judgement or complexity, and of items which aremore likely to be materially adjusted due to estimatesand assumptions turning out to be different than thoseoriginally assessed. Detailed information about each ofthese estimates and judgements is included in relevantnotes together with information about the basis ofcalculation for each affected line item in the financialstatements.
Critical estimates and judgements
The areas involving critical estimates or judgements are:
• Estimation of current tax expense and payable
• Estimated useful life of intangible asset
• Estimation of defined benefit obligation
• Recognition of revenue
• Recognition of deferred tax assets for carriedforward tax losses
• Impairment of trade receivables and other financialassets
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated.They are based on historical experience and other factors,including expectations of future events that may have afinancial impact on the Company and that are believed tobe reasonable under the circumstances.

Under the erstwhile Indian Companies Act, 1956, a general reserve was created through an annual transfer of net incomeat a specified percentage in accordance with applicable regulations. The purpose of these transfers was to ensure that if adividend distribution in a given year is more than 10.00% of the paid-up capital of the Company for that year, then the totaldividend distribution is less than the total distributable reserves for that year.
Consequent to introduction of Companies Act, 2013, the requirement of mandatory transfer of a specified percentage of thenet profit to general reserve has been withdrawn and the Company can optionally transfer any amount from the surplus ofprofit and loss to the General reserves. This reserve is utilised in accordance with the specific provisions of the CompaniesAct, 2013.
40. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company’s activities expose it to market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. In order to minimise any adverse effects on thefinancial performance of the Company, derivative financial instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts are enteredto hedge certain foreign currency risk exposures and interest rate swaps to hedge variable interest rate exposures. Derivatives areused exclusively for hedging purposes and not as trading or speculative instruments. This note explains the sources of risk whichthe entity is exposed to and how the entity manages the risk and the impact of hedge accounting in the financial statements.
(A) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty will not meet its obligations leading to a financial loss. Credit risk arises fromcredit exposures to customers including outstanding receivables.
i. Credit risk management
The Company assesses and manages credit risk based on internal credit rating system. Internal credit rating is performed on agroup basis for each class of customers. The company assigns credit limits to each class of accounts receivables, based on theassumptions, inputs and factors specific to those customers.
The Company considers the probability of default upon initial recognition of asset and whether there has been a significantincrease in credit risk on an ongoing basis throughout each reporting period. To assess whether there is a significant increasein credit risk the company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as at the reporting date with the risk of defaultas at the date of initial recognition. It considers available reasonable and supportive forwarding-looking information.
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and bank balance and the availability of funding throughan adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlyingbusiness, company maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines.
Management monitors rolling forecasts of the company’s liquidity position (comprising the undrawn borrowing facilities) andcash and cash equivalents on the basis of expected cash flows. In addition, the company’s liquidity management policy involvesprojecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these against internal and external regulatoryrequirements and maintaining debt financing plans.
(C) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of change in marketprices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk such as equity pricerisk and commodity risk.
The company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from foreign currency transactions, primarilywith respect to the USD and EURO. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised assets andliabilities denominated in a currency that is not the company’s functional currency (INR). The risk is measured through a forecastof highly probable foreign currency cash flows. The objective of the hedges is to minimise the volatility of the INR cash flows ofhighly probable forecast transactions.
The company’s risk management policy is to hedge prescribed percent of forecasted foreign currency net exposure for thesubsequent six months. As per the risk management policy, foreign exchange forward contracts are taken to hedge net foreigncurrency exposure.
(ii) Interest rate risk
The Company’s interest rate risk arises on borrowings with variable rates, which exposes the Company ‘s cash flow to interestrate risk. During March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 the Company’s borrowings at variable rates were mainly denominated inINR & USD.
The Company’s fixed rate borrowings are carried at amortised cost. They are therefore not subject to interest rate risk as definedin Ind AS 107, since neither the carrying amount nor the future cash flows will fluctuate because of a change in market.

44.Fair Value Measurement
The fair value of financial instruments in the table below has been classified into three categories depending on the inputs usedin the valuation technique. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active market for identical assets orliabilities (level 1 measurement) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The categories used are asfollows:
Level 1: Financial instruments measured using quoted prices. This includes listed equity instruments, mutual funds, bonds anddebentures, that have quoted price / NAV. The fair value of all equity instruments, mutual funds, bonds and debentures are valuedusing the closing price / NAV as at the reporting period. None of the financial assets or financial liabilities qualifies for Level 1classification.
Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) isdetermined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable market data and rely as little as possible on company-specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is considered here.Foreign exchange forward contracts are being classified as Level 2 financial assets and financial liabilities.
Level 3: The fair value of financial instruments that are measured on the basis of company specific valuations using inputs thatare not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Financial assets and financial liabilities like security deposits,trade receivables, cash and bank balances, loans given, borrowings, trade payables and other financial liabilities are classified asLevel 3 financial assets and financial liabilities.
